Sabrina Cohen Foundation

In 2016, SCF launched "Adaptive Beach Days", a "one-of-a-kind program catering to people with disabilities, including full access system to the beach and ocean/water-sports activities using floating beach wheelchairs that can easily traverse the sand and beach elements with a team of qualified staff and volunteers. Our program is free and open to the public every 1st and 3rd Sundays from 11am-3pm.

With the success of our “Adaptive Beach Days” program and “Sabrina’s Playground,” word of mouth and social media, SCF has attracted local, national and international attention. Today, SCF is expanding from “pop-up” programming to building a permanent Center for year round beach access, providing even greater opportunities for the disabled community. The development of the Sabrina Cohen Foundation Adaptive Recreation Center will be a first-of-a-kind oceanfront facility on the east coast catering exclusively to individuals with mobility challenges – from children to adults to seniors. Visitors will indulge in a uniquely empowering experience, combining indoor and beachside physical fitness with recreational activities that promote mental and spiritual wellness in one central, safe and comfortable location. The creation of a permanent Center will be the pinnacle of a decade of advocacy and work, allowing SCF to implement its overall mission of providing a better quality of life for people with disabilities for years to come. SCF’s overall mission will expand to include management and operation of the Center on a full-time, day-to-day basis. Our capital campaign is underway.
